Athens nanner-Watchman: It is file gen
ernl impression that Dr. Westmoreland
should notice in some manner the card of
Dr. W. D. Carter, of Winterville. Dr. Car
ter is a gentleman and a physician who
stands high in his profession, and lie cannot
be ignonsl under the code of honor. The
people of this section of the State are anx
iously looking to see what will be done in
the matter, for of course Dr. Westmoreland
will not ignore it.
At Augusta, yesterday morning, a young
negro named E<l Smith was sitting near the
pump at the junction of Jackson and
Twiggs streets. The lad was bare headed
under the burning sun. Soon he was per
ceived to full. When help came he was in
convulsions and seemed to lie very much
affected about the head. Ho could not

i returned at intervals with plain
manifestations of severs pain. It is sup
posed to he a ease of sunstroke.
\ terriffc and destructive wind and hail
storm passed near Madison Sunday evening,
about 8 o'clock, accompanied by the most
vivid lightning and deafening thunder
peals. The lightning struck a large elm
tree in front of Judge Si wall's former resi'
deuce, this tree having been torn
to pieces by lightning four years ago. The
drops of Charles Donand anil neighbors
were completely destroyed by the hail and
wind. These crops were unexceptionally
promising prior to the storm, and now one
would scarcely think a crop had ever grown
an the land. No one was injured personal ly
}r killed as far as known.
Ben Fuller, an employe of the Augusta,
fMaon and Bandera vide railroad, Eada
p&niliar accident happen t,o him on Monday,
lie was on the excursion train which car
ried the great crowd of colon* 1 people to
finer Crock. The train came to a stop op- I
I posito the barrel factory within the city
limits and Ben got off. As he stepped down
from the train lie struck against the hip
pocket of a negro standing against the side
of the car. In this pocket was a sharp shoe
maker’s knife, which struck Ben under the
right shoulder blade indicting a painful
wound. The physician attending said had
the wound been a little lower Ben’s life
would have been in great danger.
The Secretary of tlie Executive Depart
ment has received from Wesley Shropshire,
of Chattooga county, the counsel for Henry
Pope, under sentence of death for rape in
that county, and now confined in Fulton
jail, an affidavit with the request, that he
procure Pojie’s signature to the same. The
affidavit is for the purpose of securing Pope
anew trial, his counsel having determined
to adopt that manner of getting the case
before the courts again, it is thought that
in view of tho turn matters have taken
there will not lie the least difficulty in get
ting the prisoner anew trial. The result of
that trial as yet is a matter of the veriest
speculation, but a number of people do not
hesitate to affirm that the facts in the ease,
as brought ont by the recent developments,
are sufficiently strong to give Pope his free
dom.
Monday principal keeper Towers, of the
penitentiary department, read of the capture
of James Jenkins, a notoriously desjierate
convict who esrup-xi from the penitentiary
in I*B2. He was edßvicted in April, IHSI,
at Dougherty Siqierior Court and sentenced
to life imprisonment. Some weeks ago
Jenkins, who has lieen living at Brunswick
since his escape and who had married there,
was arrested for assaulting his wife. He
was sentenced to the chain gang for six
months. M. A. Wiggins, a railroad man,
succeeding in identifying Jenkins as tho
escaped convict, the Glynn county authori
ties turned the prisoner over to him in order
that he might deliver the man to the princi
pal keeper and obtain the $lOO reward. All
this happened some days ago, and as yet
nothing has lieen heard of Wiggins or Jen
kins at the office of the prineii>al keeper.
On Sunday night last Escott Brown, a
quiet and popular young man who lives in
East Athens, was returning home from
church with a young Atlanta lady, a cousin
of young Brown’s, who was on a visit to the
family. The young couple had crossed the
river and were half way up the steep hill
when, without warning, someone hurled a
large stone at Mr. Brown, the missile strik
ing him on the side of the head with such
force as to raise a large lump. It did not
knock him down, however. The assailed
party at once turned around to see someone
that he took to he a negro man making off’
as fast as his legs could carry him. He is
not entirely satisfied, however, that it is a
negro, hut he judged so from the dress and
manner of the man as lie rapidly fled.
Brown did not pursue his assailant, as he did
not think it advisable to leave his fair
charge, so the fellow- made good his escape.
At Athens Saturday the committee of tho
board of trustees amended the rules of tho
government of tho old Franklin college as
fixed by the “Senatus Aeademieus.” Tho
ohl law was that any student convicted of
sending or accepting a challenge to fight, a
duel, or bearing such a challenge, or in any
way aiding or allotting such a duel, should
be expelled by the faculty. The words “con
victed of” are stricken out by the commit
ted? and the following words are added at
the end of the section: “And any stu
dent so ex[ lled should not bo recalled
except by a vote of the board of trustees.”
So that the law amended requires that any
student sending or accepting a challenge,
etc., shall be expelled by the faculty, and
shall not Is- recalled except by a vote of the
lioaril of trustees. Tho old law under which
the faculty was working was framed in
1853, and really required a student to he con
victed in court before he could be expelled,
hence the amendment.
One farmer at Quitman has already
realized #KK) from a small area planted in
melons, and is not yet through shipping,
while another living near the same place
has sold #250 worth of cucumbers from a
single acre. Besides these, there are num
bers of other trackers in that section, all
of whom have made money out of the busi
ness this year. I zee county is fast coining
into prominence as a melon-growing region,
the net returns for the present crop up to
this time amounting to something like
#7,200, and the shipments increasing
daily. Peaches are also grown and
handled profitably. Messrs. Rumph &
Moore, of MarshaUville, are shipping hun
dreds of crates of them North every day,
where they sell readily at an average of #0
tier bushel. Fruit evaporators have also
lieen erected there, and thousands of bushels
of fruit that cannot bo shipped profitably
are evaporated and sold readily at good
figures. The people of that immediate sec
tion are wisely turning their attention to
this industry, and instead of eking out an
existence by cultivating cotton altogether,
are devoting much of their land to orchards,
which, in course of time, will yield them a
handsome return upon the investment.
Capt. A. C. Sneed, of the Atlanta Rifles,
returned home from Cumberland Tuesday
highly pleased with that resort. He thinks
it the best place for a military encampment
that lie has yet seen, as it is very cool and
has a sea breeze unsurpassed by any resort.
Capt. Sneed made all the final arrangements
for the company's approaching encamp
ment, and decided on Mount Airy for the
camping ground. The company will pitch
its tents in a grove of large, stately oaks,
which will furnish sufficient shade. Just in
front of the grove is u beautiful drill
ground about 100 yards wide, which
will be used for bathing while the
tide ts up. and when down the company
will drill on the beach. An excellent pro
gramme has been prepared, one which will
tie very interesting to witness. Among the
special features might be mentioned that,
while the Rifles are on the island the Bruns
wick Riflemen, with their famous hand,
will spend a day as the guests of the Rifles.
This visit will be the Occasion of a regular
jubilee. It has been unanimously decided
that the camp lie named “Camp Gordon,”
in honor of our Governor, and also that an
“invitation lie sent to Gov. Gordon and
staff, asking them to accompany us on our
encampment, and it is hoped the invitation
will lie accepted.”
N. H. Bu.su, of Thompson, was in Augusta

Adel correspondence Valdosta Timex: A
neighbor iHtssmg along tlw Union road Inst
week on seeing our clever jiostmaster with
bare arms clutching tho plow handles with
the grip of a giant and reining Ins horse
across the rows and the uprooted corn and
cotton lay withering in the sun, stopped in
amazement and inquired: ".lack what on

it?” “No sir, I don’t. A man often misses
a good chance by being too slow. This
is one time I’m heeled.” "No sir,”
continued he, taking anew chew of
tobacco as he liegan to scrape the caked dirt
from his plow with the toe of his shoe:
“You are in the heart of a great town —
twill be to your interest to invest. I’ll sell
you—let roe see—where—now will he the
best stand?’ Here heanpears for a moment
in deep study; then brighten* up and con
tinues, as he points with his index finger to
a corresponding furrow in the field over the
other side of the lane, “Yes, there is Grady
avenue. I'll sell you a business lot on thnt
side; better strike while the iron is hot;
want to keep these lots on this side for my
own use; then I’ll sell you a nice residence
lot over there on Cleveland square.” Here
lie pointed across tile lield to some new
stakes where might be seen fresh furrows in
which lay withering cotton plants.
Haralson Banner: On Monday evening
about 2 o’clock, during a thunder shower,
the house of Mr. E. T. Smith, who lives
near the railroad, two anil a half miles east
of Bremen, was struck by lightning. Mrs.
AA'iliiams, a daughter of Mr. Smith, an in
mate of the house, and her sister Fannie, a
girl of 12 years of age, were seated on the
veranda oti the north side of the building at
the time of the shock. The floor was torn
through directly under Mrs. AA’iliiams’ right
foot, tearing her shoe and stocking into
shreds. After Mrs. AA’illiains recovered
from the shock she found Fannie prostrate
and lifeless upon tho floor beside her chair.
Amid this awful perplexity she thought of
her little babe, some two weeks old, that
she had left ill a crib in an adjoining
room. Leaving her lifeless sister, sho made
her way to the crib. On reaching the room
she found the tesiiling in tho crib on fire;
snatching tho child from the flames, she
clasped it to her bosom with a heart full of
thankfulness for its deliverance. By this
time the other members of the family had
recovered from the shock. Fannie was
breathing, but otherwise unconscious. The
electric shock seemed to have pervaded
every part of the building, tearing holes
through the walls as though riddled by can
non balls. Two guns were in a room of the
building, whose stocks were shivered into
splinters. One was loaded; the cap burst,
but failed to go off. It visited the pantry,
breaking the crockery, and, remarkable to
say, turning the baking pans inside out.
Under the house several fowls were killed
that, perhaps, sought shelter there from the
shower. Tho wonder is that any of the
family escaped death.

Augustine is $1 40; from Palatka, five miles
nearer, is $1 50.
Aurantai reports crops looking well gen
erally. The orange trees in this vicinity
have a light crop, hut the trees look well
and the present growth indicates a heavy
crop next year. The frost of March 19
found the trees full of sap and the fruit just
set, and the damage to trees and fruit is
shown in the light crop.
At Orleans the rainy season has begun in
earnest. The frequent showers are causing
vegetation to grow rapidly. The vegetable
crop has nearly all been exhausted. The
people are planting tomatoes for late crop;
a few are planting egg plants also. The
growing corn, melons, [>eavines and pinders
arc rejoicing in the daily showers.
Jake McKeever (colored), of St. Augus

An unfortunate affair occurred at the
rest deuce ot i). D. Hull, of Highland, Mon
day. Some linv ago Mr. Hull was given a
bulldog bv Mr. Sawyer, of DeLund, which
soon showed itself jaisnessod of a very ugly
cliK|SKution. On tho day in question Mi l
Yelvington was nlsmt to call, but. the dog
would not permit her to enter the yanl.
Mrs. Hull .*nme to her assistance, and m at
tempting Pi hold the dog by the collar, was
set upon and most viciously bitten in the
wrist. Sol Williams, who was working
near by. succeeded in prying the dog's jaw,
apart and releasing tlic luidly lacerated
wrist, but was himself bitten in tho hand
in doing so. I)r. Gillen was sent lor and
the dog shot.
Tins happened in the office of P. F. Peek,
Cook's tourist agent, in Jacksonville: Two
gentlemen. U>th Englishmen, met for the
first time in Cook's tourist office Unlay.
One Ismght a ticket tor London via New
York, and the other Is.ught one for Van
couver, British Colombia, via New York.
The ugent introdueisl them to each other,
aud both look the wuo stateroom, though
their final destinations are r.,000 miles apart.
Soon after two others bought tickets —one
for Melbourne, Australia, via Liverpool and
the Suez canal, the other for San Francisco
via tho Panama railway. These two
cases furnish a striking illustration of the
widely parting lines of travel which diverge
from one point.
Elijah Jordon, the black terror, who
raised pandemonium at the Wayeross depot
at Jacksonville last Friday, is suffering a
great, deal of [lain front the wound in his
back. It will be remembered that he was
found nearly paralyzed front the effect of a
wound in the'took, which ho said was from
a bullet received in the melee. The by
standers, however, say that no shots were
tired except those fired by himself. When
brought before the Mayor he was asked for
and delivered to the county officers, and
was committed to await the action of the
grand jury under a charge of assault with
intent to commit murder in default of $5,000
bonds. He complains of intense pain in his
hips, and, as the wound is two inches above,
it is evident that the bullet is dropping
down.
A meeting of the Democracy of Citrus
county was held at Mannfield Saturday.
The following ticket, in opposition to that

T. Willis, Rev. George Fredcrrick, Rev. A.
A. Wilson, H. AV. Zillner, H. J. Blaisdell.
Then the whole meeting proceeded to elect
a I iemocratie County Executive Committee,
which resulted in the election of the follow

J . S. Perkins.
At Orleans during a thunder storm on
July ." the lightning struck several trees
near J. B. Young’s goat pens and killed four
of his fino Angora goats. The herd was
scattered or the hiss would have been greater.
Mr. Young brought a herd of 300 Angora
goats from Texas to Orleans last March.
The packing closely together on the cars
ami improper feeding and attention caused
a loss of about 100 head by the time they
reached Gainesville, where they were taken
off the cars. They have been doing well
since they arrived. Tho grazing on the high
pine lands seems to suit them. These goats
produce white fleecy wool ten or twelve
inches long, which sells at about 75c. per
pound in the market. The points in their
favor are that they will not jump fences,
and are free from the offensive odor of the
ordinary goat. They can live where the
Florida cow would starve, as they feed on
bushes, weeds, and any kind of short grass.
They are not valuable for their milk.
Capt. Yates, who has for some time been
engaged in the Menhaden fisheries, North,
has leased Calypso Island, in the St. Johns,
for a term of years, and is now in New
York purchasing tho machinery necessary
to begin a fertilizing factory, in which he,
Mr. Ferrar and others will lie interested.
They will begin on a small scale and enlarge
as the success of the enterprise may justify.
Even from the first they- can employ
about fifty moil to catch fish, out of
which they will manufacture the fertil
izer. The waters thereabout abound in shad
and other fish known as the fowl and Ixiny
fishes. From these the oil will be expressed
by machinery, the remains, after being
treated to the phosphates, will bo manufac
tured into fertilizers of very great value.
Mr. Ferrar thinks his company, though they
will start on a small scale, will lie able by
next year to establish a double plant. They
are now making arrangements to get the
phosphates from Charleston. The manu
facture of those fish fertilizers has been at
tempted recently on the Indian river, hut
was not successful, owing to inadequate
shipping facilities.
The terminus of the Blue Spring, Orange
City and Atlantic road is in the middle of a
large grant that is one mile square anil is
owned by a Mr. Andrews, of Baltimore.
The railroad will make out to get right of
way and that is about all. Not another
foot can they or any one else purchase.
That being the case several parties have put
up buildings on tho railroad’s right of way
for restaurant, store and post office. The
receiver of the road, Dexter Hunter, was
over tho other day and ordered all the
buildings taken off. In the fii-st
place the road Ims no authority to
allow any one to build on the
right of way, as tho company have not as
yet got their deed from Mr. Andrews. Be
sides Mr. Andrews is opposed to buildings
iieing put up in front of his lots that front
on either side of the road. But if he don’t
intend to pc’ his lots on the market during
the existence of the American republic, why
should he care, if the right of way through
his land blossoms out into a town I As it
stands now, there ean be no buildings put up
within about half a mile from the depot.
The railroad will in ail probability bridge
the river and make their terminus on the sea
beach and lodato their turn tables, shops,
etc.. over there where they can get what
land they want. There is land enough anil
to spare over there for a town, and no
doubt when the rood is in operation
up to that point a town will
spring up. for it is the b"st of all tho places
on the oast coast where a summer resort
should be located. It is near tko inlet
where the beach is several hundred feet
broad. If the railroad is extended to the
beach the company intends to put, up a big
hotel. Alfred How ard, of Glencoe, sur
veyor, measured the distance from the rail
road dock to the other side of the river for
the railroad company. Tlio bridge will be
1,000 feet long.
Col. John AVcbb, tho Harbor Master of
Pensacola, is in receipt of a letter from
Capt. Farady of the baric Longfellow, dat
ed New York, July A, from which a report
er has been permitted to make an extract,
to wit: “I made a fairly good passage to
Rio, sixty-five days, a.nd got on nicely for a
time; got the cargo all out and chartered
the ship to load coffee for New Yol k—2o,-
900 hags at 15s. I was loaded and ready for
sea when yellow fever made its appearance
and cleaned ine out of all
hands but young Reed, the
little fellow 1 took from Pensacola, the
carpenter and the second mate. All hands
were in the hospital and four died in one
week. 1 then got the ship fumigated, lot
her lav for four days, w/ion 1 proceeded to
sea. Before the t tig let go of me, outside of
the harbor, the mate took sick, came to an
chor twenty-five miles from Rio, went back
with him, got another and started, leaving
ten men, two chief mates and two stewards
behind. AVe were twont'f-two Hours at sen.
when the fever again bro*to out. We buried
the little Ikiv and three men in seven days,
during which time there tv as not u breath of
wind. It was teiTi'.Jo to lie.-ir their moaning
and howling at night, all of them out of their
mind*. I expected at our time that Izhonld
burv the lot: I could get no port, but, thank
God, it finished up there. When I got to
tic-equator, l hud only three men and the
officers a I ile to work. AVheu off Hatteras,
forty two days from Rio, we got a severe
gale and lost some sails on aeffount of not
having men to him He them. AVe were ten
days from llattern, here, where we did
twenty-fours quarantine and went to the
city on June lit. They would give me six
months quarantine in Pensacola. I was
only three days discharging, and, there
te ing no paying employment! offering for a
long voyage, 1 have laid tue ship up until
things take a turn.”

SOUTHWEST GSORGIA.
A Good Crop Prospect-Shipments
Melons and Pears.
Horton, Ga., July 13.—The rail's that
have fallen in abundance in this locality
during the past ten days insures a good corn
crop. The acreage of corn in Southwest
Georgia is quite largo. The yield and the
quality will be good. Cotton, too, is good,
tnougii there is tear that too much rain has
fallen recently for it. I have noticed the
crop on a dozen or more farms thus week
ana have yet to see one injured from too
much rain. The prospect for jjeas, pmdfflr*,
Itatoes and cano is good enough, lue
melon soason, now nearing the close, has
been an active and paying <ie. P u “ ,r N?
money in circulation and ‘’knocking hard
times higher than a kite.''
The LeC'onte pear crop is proving better
than expected, both in quantity and quality,
and is being marketed as rapidly as man
and beast can deliver it to the railroad
and express companies. Tears are quoted
to-day at $3 per crate in Philadelphia.
There is a nice profit in them at one-half of
these figures. Thomasville has shipped up
to date in round numbers 2,1500 crates east
ward and two carloads west. Boston has
shipped 000 crates and will ship perhaps 125
crates daily for the next ten These
pears are ready sale here at 50c. per bu. m
bulk and 75(<z,&>e. per crate packed. [.*' the
1,592 carloads melons moved by the istvaii
nah, Florida and Western rail
way up to July 9 fully one-halt
have been grown and shipped by
Brooks and Lowndes counties, and perhaps
one fourth of the other by Thomas county.
Of this Brooks alone has shipped nearly tu)o
cars. Place the average ot' net returns at
the low figures of S3O per ear and it will
readily be seen that the total is a nice sum
of money. With the melon and pear crops
so profitable, backed as they' are by an
abundance of home supplies for man and
beast, the present cotton crop ought to be
one of nearly clear profit to many.
The meeting that has been nearly contin
uous for three weeks at the Methodist Epis
copal church continues. The pastor Rev.
Julian Jordan, has iteen untiring in his la
bors. Ho has hail the cordial co operation
of his church and the assistance of Messrs.
Chester and Crumphler, of Bainbridge, and
McGhee, of Thomasville. There have been
nineteen accessions to the church up to
July 10.
A Batch of Anecdotes.
From the Alujxiha (Ga.) Star.
In a Georgia city lives a popular divine
who is liked by all classes. He is very fond
of fishing and hunting, and does not object
to telling a side-splitting anecdote occasion
ally. Here is one we caught on the fly re
cently:
Oneo a party went fishing. There was
some snake medicine along, and one or
more of the party took too much aboard.
In the evoning a terrific storm came up.
As it was nearing the party one, more pious
than the rest, knelt down at the root of a
tree and began to pray for protection.
About the same time one of those who had
tapped the jug too often shouted:
"Come ahead, you blasted old cyclone.
Tear us all to pieces! Blow us to Halifax!
Hurrah for the United .States and Kiuoha
foonee!"
When he closed, the humble supplicant at
the root of the tree raised his horrified face
to heaven and cried:
“Oh, Lord, don’t mind what that con
founded crazy fool is saying. He is blind
drunk, as you can see for yourself, and he
don't belong to the. church, noway.”
ANOTHER.
Parson F., another popular divine, tells
the following good one:
A negro woman, during slavery' days, had
joined the church a number of times, only
to be turned out for misbehavior. She had
just joined again, and her master, a pious
man, inquired:
“Jane do you think you will stick this
time?”
“Yas, boss, I hab strong hopes in dat
erection now.”
“Did you go to Jesus for help?”
“Me? Dat I didn’t! I went tode head
Boss dis time. Jesus am only his son.”
STILE ANOTHER.
Down at Hebron church,near Jasper,Fla.,
lives a Primitive divine who was once a
missionary Baptist preacher. One Sunday,
before preaching, a Missionary Baptist, a
member of the church of which the preacher
formerly had charge, asked him why he
had forsaken them and gone over to tiie
Primitive church. He did not reply at
once, but when he got up in the
pulpit to preach, he saw quite a number of
his former congregation before him, and
then decided to inform them why he made
the change. He told them that he would
illustrate the cause by relating an anecdote,
which he did about as follows:
He was riding along one day and came to
n house, in the front yard of which was a
bright looking little lioy play'ing with a
number of puppies. He asked:
“My little man, what kind of puppies are
those?”
“They’re Missionary Baptist puppies,”
promptly replied the boy.
Tiie preacher rode ou, studying the while
over the queer name the little boy bud
given the puppies. On the return trip he
overtook a Primitive Baptist divine not far
from the little boy’s home, and proposed
that they stop and talk with the little boy.
Halting at the gate he called the child and
asked him to bring out his puppies. He did
so and the Primitive Baptist preacher
asked:
“What kind of puppies are those, my
child?”
“They’re Primitive Baptist puppies,” ho
replied.
“You told me awhile ago that they were
Missionary Baptist puppies,” sakl the aston
ished missionary brother.
“They was then, because they didn’t have
their eyes open when you passed, but since
you passed their eyes have opened and they
are now Primitive Baptist puppies.”
